We did not arrive on the 14th so they cancelled our reservation and charged us two rooms, one night! Even though they had my phone #, no one reached out to us to ask why we hadn’t shown up. We had to make other arrangements.

Jeff, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A budget type stay in a budget hotel. That’s the best way to describe this property and our stay. The room was reasonably clean and satisfactory other than the toilet paper which is given in a dispenser one square at a time. The breakfast buffet was limited and probably not worth the €19 per adult but was convenient if you have kids. The bar prices were unreasonably high (€6 for a can of Coke and €7 for water). The tram was not working and so the location, which isn’t the nicest part of town, turned out to be an inconvenient walk to the main areas where activity is present. But again, relatively cheap price overall for a somewhat mediocre property.
Jeffrey, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the City

One night stay on a motorcycling trip. Convenient, safe parking, air conditioned. Tram outside to take you into the centre of town.

A decent budget hotel which suited us as close to the station. 30 minute walk to get to the central area but not a problem if reasonably fit. Quiet and safe location with no traffic noise of any consequence.
